acct_on(): don't mess with freeze protection
commit 9419a319 upstream. What happens there is that we are replacing file->path.mnt of a file we'd just opened with a clone and we need the write count contribution to be transferred from original mount to new one. That's it. We do *NOT* want any kind of freeze protection for the duration of switchover. IOW, we should just use __mnt_{want,drop}_write() for that switchover; no need to bother with mnt_{want,drop}_write() there.
